Wood works hard in hospitality properties. Doors open and close hundreds of times a week, wardrobe hinges loosen, and humidity or dry heat makes timber swell and shrink.
StaysFix repairs and adjusts existing joinery and produces custom pieces — from bedside units to wardrobes and shelving — sized for your rooms and consistent with your interiors.
Common challenges in hospitality properties
Doors that stick or will not close
Seasonal movement in timber causes doors and windows to bind. Adjusting and treating them restores smooth operation and security.
Wear from constant use
Hinges, runners and handles in guest rooms wear faster than at home. Replacing hardware early protects the furniture.
Traditional carved and painted wood
Cedar doors and painted ceilings are part of a riad’s character. Repairs must be sympathetic to the original work.
